Book spotlight: Rocco DiSpirito returns with "Now Eat This! Diet"

Thursday

I'm not sure why my favorite reality show, "The Biggest Loser," decided to inundate us with Curtis Stone and drop Rocco DiSpirito from its roster of guest chefs.

But I always loved Rocco and will take any opportunity to bring him back into the spotlight. (By the way, I'm totally pissed you got bumped from "The View" yesterday, Roc.)

Anyway, Rocco has a new book out, so I have an excuse to talk about him today. It's called "Now Eat This! Diet: Lose Up to 10 Pounds in Just 2 Weeks Eating 6 Meals a Day!" and you can get it at Amazon.com now for $12.64, or 45 percent off the list price, so....I'll give you a minute to go place your order.

OK, if you want to know what to expect from the book, check out this synopsis:

On the heels of the bestselling success of his low-calorie "Now Eat This!" cookbook, Rocco DiSpirito expands his brand with a weight-loss program guaranteed to produce maximum results with minimum effort.

DiSpirito changed his life and his health -- without giving up the foods he loves or the flavor. He has lost more than 20 pounds, participated in dozens of triathlons, and -- after an inspirational role as a guest chef on "The Biggest Loser" -- changed his own diet and the caloric content of classic dishes on a larger scale. In "Now Eat This! Diet," complete with a foreword by Dr. Mehmet Oz, DiSpirito offers readers a revolutionary 2-week program for dropping 10 pounds quickly, with little effort, no deprivation, and while still eating 6 meals a day and the dishes they crave, like mac & cheese, meatloaf, BBQ pork chops and chocolate malted milk shakes.

The secret: Rocco's unique meal plans and his 75 recipes for breakfast, lunch, dinner, dessert and snack time, all with zero bad carbs, zero bad fats, zero sugar, and maximum flavor. Now readers can eat more and weigh less -- it's never been so easy!

OK, now go get the book. And if you want to know when Rocco's next TV appearance will be -- or if he makes it onto "The View" roster again -- follow him on Twitter.
